Colwyn Bay to be transformed

Colwyn Bay will be transformed into a must-visit destination thanks to new funding for the Colwyn Bay Waterfront Project. The project will enable almost 1km of existing promenade to be transformed by Summer 2017.

The development will see the re-emergence of Colwyn Bay as a tourism and watersports destination for the North Wales coast, complementing the increasing reputation of North Wales as an adventure tourism destination.

North Wales was recently named by the Lonely Planet as one of the best places to see in 2017 with special mention being made to the way the area has been reinvented and repurposed to create a series of truly world class attractions.

The next phase will now enhance this offer by creating better access to the beach, improving parking provision, and incorporating new landscaping and a marked exercise trail. Areas for temporary concessions will also be created, with the construction of permanent concession building to follow.
